How To Make buttermilk fudge candy

Step 1

Add soda to buttermilk and let stand for at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a buttered pan or dish.

Step 2

Add sugar and syrup to buttermilk mixture and cook until it reaches the soft ball stage or 238 degrees.
Step 3

Remove from heat and cool until lukewarm. Add vanilla and nuts and beat until it begins to thicken; it will lose glossy appearance and hold shape well. Quickly pour into buttered pan or dish.
Step 4

Cut into squares when firm and cool.
